While the scientific nomenclature of carbohydrates is complex, the names of the monosaccharides and disaccharides very often end in the suffix-ose. For example, grape sugar is the monosaccharide glucose, cane sugar is the disaccharide sucrose and milk sugar is the disaccharide lactose (see illustration). Carbohydrates perform numerous roles in living organisms.
Credit: SanDisk. SanDisk just doubled the maximum capacity of the microSD card. The company on Monday announced the 128GB SanDisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-I memory card, the worldâs largest-capacity microSD card. Thatâs twice the size of the 64GB card previously available. The new 128GB cards are available exclusively through Amazon (s AMZN) and Best Buy (s bby) starting today for $199.99.
This resulted in the miniSD format, measuring 21.5 x 20mm, and then microSD cards, measuring 11 x 15mm. You can use a miniSD or microSD card in an SD card slot by plugging it into an SD-sized adapter, and some mini/micro cards are sold with them. Obviously, you can't fit an SD card into a miniSD or microSD slot. I assumed most of us needed different sizes, so it's handy if all your devices use the microSD format.
